Title: Computer program product for selectively transmitting advertising content determines if address is know and/or allocates address to local category
Inventor: STROETZEL MERTEN
IPC: H04L29/08
Filed: 1999-12-08
Abstract: The product includes program parts for performing a method involving detecting an address selected by a user, and analyzing the address to determine if it corresponds to a predetermined known address or to allocate the address to a predetermined local category. The content is selected based on the results of the analysis. The content is then transmitted to the user.

Inventor: BARRY JOHN E
IPC: A61L27/10

Abstract: The present invention provides antimicrobial ocular lenses made from a polymeric
material that contains an inorganic antimicrobial agent in order to make the lens resistant to
microbial growth in the body or on the surface of the lens. In one embodiment the inorganic
antimicrobial agent is a zeolite which contains antimicrobial metal ions. Lenses of the invention
prevent microbial contamination and growth thereon by incorporating the inorganic antimicrobial
agent into the lens material. A lens of the invention does not leach the antimicrobial agent into
the eye during use or into ophthalmic solution in which it may be stored, and is safe (non-toxic)
for  in vivo  use. Furthermore, substantial antimicrobial properties are not imparted to the
solution, nor are the characteristics of ophthalmic solutions altered. As a result, all types of
ophthalmic solutions can be used safely with a contact lens of the invention. Another advantage
of the antimicrobial agent of the invention is that it does not cause substantial discoloration of the
lens over time. In another aspect, the invention provides a method of killing or reducing
microbes on a contact lens made from a polymeric material by adding an antimicrobial-effective
amount of an inorganic antimicrobial agent to the polymeric material.

Abstract: A method of encoding a local time base embedded in the compressed data is
disclosed. The local time base is encoded in two parts. The first part has a modulo
time base that indicates the specific interval in the reference time base and the second
part has a time base increment relative to the reference time. Two forms of time base
increment is used to allow for the possibility of different encoding order and displaying
order. A mechanism for the synchronization of multiple compressed streams with
local time base is also described. A time base offset mechanism is also used to allow
finer granularity synchronization of the multiple compressed streams.

Abstract: Safety valve comprising a housing having an inlet (3) and outlet (4), as well as a valve seat. A
spring (10) loaded valve (6) member provided with a diaphragm (8) seals the valve seat. On the
other hand the spring bears on a valve holder (5) being connected to the valve housing. The
connection is such that in the accommodation of either the valve holder or the housing
in either the housing or the valve holder, also the end of the diaphragm is
accommodated. Engagement is trough a deformable circumferential edge (8). By more or
less deformation of the circumferential edge, the free circumferential extremity of the
diaphragm is compressed more or less and a higher or lower pretension results. In this
way the spring pressure can be preadjusted. The valve member can be displaced for test
purposes by a rotating knob (35) provided on the valve holder. This can be realised such that
only rotation in one direction gives lifting.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrayed waveguide grating which
forms a flattened area whose flatness is satisfactory, in the
vicinity of the center wavelength of transmission spectra,
wherein linear waveguides (1) which have a width equivalent
to or less than 0.65 times the width of respective optical input
waveguides (12) are connected to respective emitting sides of
a plurality of optical input waveguides (12), tapered
waveguides (8) which widen the mode field of signal light toward
the emitting side are connected to the respective emitting
sides of the linear waveguides (1), and first slab waveguides
(13), a plurality of juxtaposed arrayed waveguides (14) having
different lengths from each other, second slab waveguides (15)
and a plurality of juxtaposed optical output waveguides (16)
are connected to the emitting sides of the tapered waveguides
(8) in this order. The center of power of light signals
propagated through the optical input waveguides (12) is caused
to shift to the center of the tapered waveguides in the width
direction by the linear waveguides (1), and the center of the
corresponding light signal power is made incident on the center
of the incident sides of the tapered waveguides (8) in the width
direction, whereby distortion of the mode field of lights
emitting from the tapered waveguides (8) can be suppressed, 
and it is possible to form a flattened area whose flatness is
satisfactory, in the vicinity of the center wavelength of
transmission spectra.
